Thanks nexttogone. I wasn't even aware that they were on our ceiling until I joined Noah. Now I'm amazed at how intricate their wing patterns are.. you just have to love nature... what they lack in size, they made up for their beauty.
I've grown to like these moths and you have managed to pick up the other colors too. Nice shots. Also, thank you for the follow ")
